So the million dollar question is what would you buy instead of it? In the same price bracket!! Gx7 maybe??
I also have a GX7 and like the G7 it's a good camera with issues. The evf is IMO poor and worse than the one on my first generation G1 and like the G7 it suffers shutter shock with some lenses so I wouldn't recommend it unless the issues are known and understood.
I understand that the GX8 has a better evf but is still affected by shutter shock with affected lenses, or so some reviews say.
Unfortunately there currently isn't a mft body I'd either recommend unconditionally or buy myself. I think that the GX8 and GX80 as so flawed by either a poor evf or shutter shock that any potential buyer needs to be aware of the possible issues and think carefully before making a decision. Until Panasonic sort the shutter shock issue and drop the field sequential evf I wont be buying. Twice bitten with the G7 and GX7 but never again.
